Earlier today we reported here about a new video game called Transformers Cybertron - Quest For Cybertron. In order to get behind the mystery I contacted the games designer and producer, Jason Crawford. Mr. Crawford told me:

"Transformers: Quest For Cybertron is a title for Hasbro's new video game learning console called ION. Although fun for adults, the game is geared towards 7 to 10 year olds and all the ION titles are meant to teach as well as entertain. The ION will debut this summer and Transformers: Quest For Cybertron is due out by this holiday season."

Numlock of TFW2005 has come across an interesting website with some information about a new Transformers video game. The website is for Brooklyn Games, a development firm. The firm is supposedly handling some of the duties in creating a Transformers Cybertron video game titled "The Quest for Cybertron". The website even has some images from the game. However, there has never been a mention of a Transformers Cybertron Video Game. Also the copy right under the image is dated 2005. This could be a game that was never fully developed. The news crew will keep you posted if more information becomes available. Click here to see the game images.

Glu Moblie, official developers of Transformers Mobile content, have asked TFormers.com to canvas opinion on what characters should be in the forthcoming Transformers Mobile Phone based game. For the fans to have thier say a topic has been posted at TFans.com asking fans to post thier preferences.

So what characters do you think MUST be in the Transformers Mobile Game? Optimus Prime, Megatron, Unicron, Wheelie? Have your say here.

Hasbro has been busy the last few days releasing press releases. First Activision announced they would be making a Transformers game for the upcoming movie, and now Hasbro has issued a press release regarding their deal with Activision. The press release confirms that Activision will indeed be creating a new game for the movie. This is the first time Hasbro has confirmed the deal officially. Here is some of what the article had to say:

"Hasbro Properties Group, the intellectual property development arm of Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE: HAS) and Activision, Inc, (NASDAQ: ATVI), a leading publisher of interactive entertainment software products, announced today a license that grants Activision the global rights, excluding Japan, to develop console, handheld and PC games based on Hasbro's renowned TRANSFORMERS brand. The first game will be tied to the much-anticipated July 4, 2007 movie release of the live action TRANSFORMERS film from DreamWorks Pictures and Paramount Pictures."

UPDATE! The game is not a fighting game, but rather a Dynasty Warriors type hack-n-slash. However, the storyline, hidden characters, and other items are still true. The VS mode may be thrown in as an extra feature.

What can we expect from the new Transformers video game (listed for a June 3rd release)? Well, it´s a fighting game, so there´ll be the ´single player mode´ where you´ll play as the Autobot heroes through the events of Seasons 1-3 and the movie.
Then there´ll be the VS mode where you and a friend can fight it out. Autobot VS Decepticon or have some brutal in-fighting in the ranks. You decide.
Also, there´ll be several hidden characters that you´ll unlock as you progress through the game. Mostly Season 2/3/movie bots and cons. The graphics will impress fans, though.

Rodimus99 reports that the Babbages store in the Santa Rosa Plaza (northern California) lists in their computer a game called "Transformers Tatakai." It
is for the Playstation 2 and set to release on June 3rd. There was no
information on what the game format was or the producer. The title, "Transformers Tatakai!", translates roughly into "Transformers Fighting", "Transformers Battle" or "Transformers Battles". From the name of the title it sounds like a fighting game of sorts ... but it could be a war game as well. This could very well be the G1 Transformers game that has been rumored the past few months which is in development by Japan´s WinkySoft. An American publisher has not yet been named. Possible images from "Transformers Tatakai" can be found at tformers.com.

Supposedly, this rumored Transformers Generation One (G1) video game is an official project in the land of the rising sun. According to AmericanDreamComics who apparently scored an interview with Shinichi Suzuki (General Manager International Division of Takara in Japan). Read more details HERE at AmericanDreamComics including FIVE new pictures from this "game". Thank you to everyone who sent this tip along the past few days.
